Do French/International chefs really use/talk about Fahrenheit instead of Celsius degrees?
Example: https://youtu.be/lVcTvHTn6Dw?t=325
This chef is very French, yet he talks about Fahrenheit. In France, which is in Europe, surely they use Celsius? He seems to "think" in American terminology, which I find puzzling. I really expected a French chef to be all about Celsius, kilograms and other typical European conventions/measurements. To be fair, I don't remember if I've heard him refer to "cups" or other American measurement units.
Best Answer
His target audience is American, hence the Fahrenheit reference. His other videos mention 'eggplant' and Thanksgiving.
